See the Bright Side of Food Allergies

allergy awareness

The kids were a boppin’ and I was a rockin’ at the Allergy + Free From Show in London over the past weekend. I had the privilege of performing throughout the three day expo in the Kid Zone at the Haydn’s Wish exhibit area. If you are in the U.K, I encourage you to check out Haydn’s Wish – it’s a very inspiring charity doing great work.

It was a real treat to have more laid back and informal performances then I’m used to. Performing for 400 children in a gymnasium is pretty structured as you would imagine. I got to sit on a comfy chair and do impromptu concerts whenever we had enough kids around to have some fun!

I was amazed by the sheer size of the trade show. I’m really happy that I went to get a feel for it and will definitely consider setting up a booth next year for www.allergytranslation.com to promote food allergy translation cards, as well as www.allergytravels.com.

Back to school for many means buying new pencils, outfits and school supplies. For those affected by allergies, there is another element – making sure your child, your child’s teacher and the full school environment is prepared for a new school year of allergy safety.

It’s important to set the tone at the start of the year with food allergy awareness so students all understand what is/is not acceptable. The “Kyle Dine & Friends” DVD is an easy way to educate students just by pressing play. It covers all of the essential info for grades K-6, plus it’s incredibly interactive and features zany puppets, funky tunes and games.

I’m happy to offer a back to school allergy awareness bundle to help get allergy awareness off to a great start in your school!

Just in time for Food Allergy Awareness Week, I have three posters available to download for free! You can print and post in your school, home, community center – wherever you want to raise awareness! Available now until the end of FAAW.

If you want to purchase high quality prints to be received in the mail, they are still available on my website – www.kyledine.com.
